In fact, Hyatt actually implemented CSS variables at one point, starting here: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/34666 And more commits here, including eventual disabling, due to lack of consensus in the CSS WG: http://trac.webkit.org/search?q=%22css+variables%22&noquickjump=1&changeset=on You may want to look at his original code and consider using it before implementing this from scratch.
